Hülsenfelsen

Highlight • Natural Monument

Sandstone rock that is not right next to a path.
Around it leads a narrow, sometimes slippery path.
At the eastern end, there was something like a small trail from the path to the rock.

Geiersteine Rock Formation

Highlight • Natural Monument

At the Geiersteinen there are various climbing routes and you can also find climbers there.
It is worth to circle the Geiersteine and above all to enjoy the all-round view from above on the Geiersteinen!
